Supersprint Wakefield Park Sat 21st May
So who's going? We will be heading off Fri around lunch time from Newy. Staying at the track.
Can't wait it's even more fun than drag racing
I posted my entry form today.
Let's see if I can improve on my best time from 5th last with some
race tyres, spoiler and new sway bar.

Even more fun than drag racing??? Not taking away anything from the drags but going from a few seconds to well over 5 minutes and adding braking and
hanging on in corners is is a mind blowing difference. Wish I could get out there.

Rose, You're going to have to make sure you get out in front of Birchall. You dont want to get stuck behind that old granny.

Have a drive of No.8 Beetle, if you want.
Cheers, Greg
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

Hi Rose
Do you have a deep sump on that car, you will need one with the extra grip.
I was going to make comment about the beam front end, but that's like throwing sand at the beach.

Hi Rose
I'm working on both of them, hopefully one will be there. I'm down to one driver as David has lost his licence for 3 months.
So if it all work out we will take the white one on Saturday and the orange one on Sunday. I want to get some miles on the orange one before I race
it.
Steve

Steve, plenty of miles between sydney and goulburn. A lot more than there is between Wollongong and Oran Park. By the time I got to the top of Mt
Ousley I was right to go I reckon. All the oily finger prints had burnt off the exhaust, thats how you can tell if its run in.
You cant sit back on the sideline and sledge. Unless you are me.

Put your glasses on Birchall, they are the right way around, look at the inner guard in the background if you can see it, its the right hand guard
that Rose posted a picture of you blind dope.
This guy saw the light

14 entrants two weeks out from the event? Seems we have more forum racers than the real deal. By my count all the racer chat on AVD should have easily
reached 50 VWs for this event by this late stage. I guess there's still a week to go to prove me right....

Only 14 What about all those who missed out last year [for variousreasons], and said that they would not miss this year There
wouldn't be too many who had more to do to their car than I did........and I'm an old codger! My entry is in, and I want some Beetles to play with
at Wakefield Park.
Cheers, Greg
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

15, There's one I missed putting on there. I've had plenty of people email saying they want to go. Dont know why they arent showing up in the
mailbox.
I guess Club VW will have to put up the swap meet entries to cover the loss.

 yep i'm a no show this year.....so thats 2 entrys that would normally be
a certanty
just not enough $$ around to get the race car there......... was super keen on running my beetle as the alternative but sadly the panel man has not
pulled through in time for that either.
sorry Chris and co. I would reccomend it to anyone thinking about it still, great value for money and well run event, a credit to those who do all the
hard work to set it up
certainly hope the numbers come up and the event can continue in future years, and yes Fraser, you are always welcome to an arvo run in what ever car
i'm there with.......
